Despite being spiked, the effects of that Cup-o-Soup are wearing off...

Hi, this is my "me" page, blablabla, nothing here yet, but this is currently a dumping-ground for material I need to cut-and-paste. Feel free to use it yourself if you wish. But if you do, you must be very bored. Or lonely. Don't whittle away hours voting, go find a stub and flesh it out. Read a WikiBook. Take a virtual Walk. Anything!

my mottos (yes I am bored)

  • "when in doubt, Vfd!"
  • "always reread your posts!"

my paste-ins (very, very bored)

  • (generic crap) "mental note: add to "list of things that make you go '-cruft'!""
  • (micronations) "Delete all micronations"
  • (nobody bands) "Not notable on Google? Then not notable on Misplaced Pages either. Sorry bro, but that's showbusiness for ya!"
  • (nobody people) "Sorry, but Misplaced Pages isn't your local college yearbook."
  • (advertisements)
  • (forum handles) "NO forummer will EVER be worthy of mention on Misplaced Pages, unless there is a noteworthy real-world person behind that handle."
  • (links/farms) "sorry, this is not Google Directory."
  • (unknown things) "Google is the librarian of reality. If it's not on Google, it doesn't exist."

Vfd adding

I. Edit PageName.

  Enter the following text at the top of the page:

{{subst:vfd}}
Be sure to include "subst:", not just {{vfd}}; this is easier on the servers.
II. Create its VfD subpage.

  You should see a prominent link to "this article's entry" in the new VfD text.
Follow that link (to Misplaced Pages:Votes for deletion/PageName) and enter this text:

{{subst:vfd2 | pg=PageName | text=Reason why the page should be deleted}}
Include a reason after text= . Suggest what action should be taken for the article, and sign your name.
III. Add a line to VfD.   Follow   this edit link   and add a line to the bottom of the page:
{{subst:vfd3 | pg=PageName}}
As a courtesy, use ] in the edit summary, so people can go to the page without loading all of VfD.
